Abstract
From a sector within an extended Tertiary basin 21 groundwater samples as well as 3 rock samples of a Zechslein diapir were analysed for 87Sr/86Sr-ralio. As a tendency the isotope ratio of the dissolved strontium is decreasing with increasing depth and strontium content. Furthermore, strontium content and salinity are correlated. With two exceptions the isotope data are in the range between about 0.7080 and 0.7100. Significant differences in the strontium isotope composition were found between the Zechstein salts and the typical groundwaters. This shows, that the Zechstein diapir can not be the source of the higher salinity in parts of the groundwater system. The results are discussed.
